Abstract: The main concept of a multilevel converter is to achieve higher power by using a series of power semiconductor switches with several dc source to perform the power conversion by synthesizing a staircase voltage waveform. In this paper, 3- level and 5- level diode clamped inverter topologies and SPWM technique has been applied to formulate the switching pattern for inverter that minimizes the harmonic distortion at the output.
Keywords: Diode Clamped Inverter, Total Harmonic Distortion, SPWM.
